Brisbane Sculpture Festival 2025
This July, the Mt Coot-tha Botanic Gardens will come alive with creativity as the Brisbane Sculpture Festival returns, turning the gardens into an inspiring outdoor gallery the whole family can enjoy.
Presented by Sculptors Queensland, the free event features both indoor and outdoor exhibitions with stunning works by local sculptors – from bold and contemporary to whimsical and thought-provoking.
Every piece is available for purchase, with prices starting from just $50.
Families won’t want to miss a special hands-on activity during opening weekend, where visitors can help create a community sculpture that will stay on display throughout the festival.
Kids will love exploring the sculpture trail, discovering artworks tucked among the greenery, and scanning QR codes to learn more. With art, nature, and creativity all in one place, the Brisbane Sculpture Festival offers a unique and fun day out for all ages.
